Informative visit to Spinalonga

Katherine_E, Aug 2025

An informative trip to Spinalonga and just the right amount of time. Given 4 stars because the food was not a BBQ as promised and veggie option was odd However I would recommend the trip as kobg as you are not planning to eat.

Fun history trip to Spinalonga!

Jacqueline_C, Oct 2024

Very good trip for only $30.20 a person. I spoke to someone else who paid 48 euros where they got picked up from their hotel, but the bus ride was two hours for them to get to port. We had a car, so only took us ten minutes. Sights were beautiful, water was perfectly cool, lunch was good. I gave four stars because boat was pretty crowded, but we grabbed some chairs from a stack and found a great spot in the corner. They also have snacks and drinks for sale on the boat. Spinalonga charged an 8 Euro entrance fee on top of tour price. We loved it!

Enjoyed ourselves

Llinos_W, Sept 2024

We had a lovely day. The boat left on time. Plenty of spaces for us to sit on. Weather perfect. Nothing to complain about.

Disappointing

anitafenton, Jun 2024

1/2 hour late leaving the port so left short of time for other activities . Overcrowded boat . Not formed about the rocky terrain getting to the beach drop off . BBQ food poor. Would not recommend this trip

Historical & Fun

Gregory_L, May 2024

The crew were excellent, especially the bartender👍👍 We very much enjoyed the cruise and getting to walk into history. After reading “The Island” by Victoria Hislop, we were moved to experience the environment in which so many unfortunate people spent their lives.

Overcrowded multinational boat trip

Michael_S, Jul 2023

Too many people on the boat Good visit to Spinalonga but better ways to go there People sleeping on benches occupying and some ‘reserving’ 2 or more seats Difficult to eat bbq on a tray Good stop for a swim Shaded area limited on boat V noisy

Not a very good trip at all

Phillip_B, May 2023

We boarded the boat and all seemed to be going well. However, we were told about 15 minutes into the trip that the boat could not dock on the Island due to the weather. This was fine until we were told the trip would terminate in Elounda. Our hire car was parked in Agios Nicolaos, we were not offered any firm if transport to get us back to.our care and had to use a taxi at additional Cost of 15 euros. Not a good trip.

Not a good idea

Terry_L, Aug 2022

The boat ran very late but still stick to it’s guidelines! Making lunch short and the trip to Spinalanga shortened!! The only good thing was the bartender, he was pleasant and did an excellent job

Good experience

Bruno_P, Aug 2025

On top. In line with the program. No notice. In line with our expectations. I recommend for a nice getaway

Belle excursion

Manon_Q, Jun 2024

Superbe journée avec des vues toutes exceptionnelles. L'île de spinalonga est un passage obligatoire. La petite plage ou nous nous sommes arrêté était incroyable avec une eau des plus turquoise. Le repas étais très correct, merci pour cette journée.

Très belle croisière

Deborah_C, Apr 2024

La croisière est très agréable, la visite est top, le personnel très gentil Seul bémol le vent au moment de manger, du coup pas assez de place à l’intérieur pour manger
